fortunately or unfortunately, the real world has hypnosis in it I just got off a hypno session. I dont like seeing people claiming it isn't real. You scoff at it, but you probably have not tried it and may be one of those that doesnt really pay attention if you listen to a file, or just purposely ignore everything and claim it doesn't work. Its a little rude to come into a blog like this and say 'I live in the real world and that's just fake'. its not a placebo and its not fake, its like a mentally altering drug and should be used with care. it would be even more rude if it were a placebo effect, but fortunately, it is not.
good luck and i hope you enjoy your change valiant
